Comment (by perre):

 I got the same problem over here on pidgin 2.4.1 on ubuntu 8.04 (with
 downgraded kernel to gutsy gibbon instead of hardy heroon) using msn-
 protocol.

 This actually is pretty annoying. When i leave my work-pc on in the
 evening when i go home people think i'm still online hours later. They
 then send me a message to get no response cos i'm not there anymore. When
 I return in the morning i see they tried to contact me.

 I don't agree with the "minor" qualification of this ticket since in my
 opinion this is one of the basic functions of pidgin. You can't be
 changing your status all the time when you go away from your pc.

 Anyway: I hope this will get fixed. If any additional info is needed i'm
 happy to try and help out.
